ENGINE OIL fig. 204-205-206-207
Check the oil level a few minutes (about 5) after the en-
gine has stopped, with the car parked on level ground.
The oil level should be between the MIN and MAX marks
on the dipstick B.
The gap between the MIN and MAX marks corresponds
to about 1 litre of oil.
If the oil level is near or under the MIN line, add oil through
the filler A until it reaches the MAX line.
The oil level should never exceed the MAX line.

ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
The maximum engine oil consumption is usually 400 grams
every 1,000 km.
During the initial period of usage for the vehicle, the en-
gine is bedding in, therefore the engine oil consumption
may settle down only after the first 5,000 – 6,000 km.
